--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Call For Book Chapters: "Epistasis: Methods and Protocols", Methods in Molecular Biology, Springer (USA) --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- As commissioned by Prof. John Walker, we would like to invite you to contribute a book chapter for our upcoming volume entitled “Epistasis: Methods and Protocols” in the prestigious "Methods in Molecular Biology" series to be published by Springer(USA). The volume will be available both in print and in ebook format by 2020 with Springer(USA). https://www.springer.com/series/7651?detailsPage=titles https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Methods_in_Molecular_Biology Sample Book Chapter http://motif.cs.cityu.edu.hk:8000/Kurien2015.pdf The goal of this volume is to summarize the state-of-the-art methodology steps in the computational or wet-lab methods for epistasis. Topics of interest include (but not limited to): Experimental Methods Double Mutant Cycles Synthetic genetic arrays (SGA) diploid based Synthetic Lethality Analysis of Microarrays (dSLAM) Epistatic MiniArray Profiles (E-MAPs) Pombe Epistasis Mapper (PEM) System Combinatorial RNA interference High-Throughput Sequencing Technologies Next-Generation Sequencing Third-Generation Sequencing Statistical Methods Regression Statistical Testing GWAS TWAS eQTL Mapping Multifactor dimensionality reduction Genetic Interaction Network Analysis High-order Epistatic Mapping Computational Methods Epistasis Simulation Epistasis Visualization Machine Learning Deep Learning and AI Computational Acceleration (e.g. GPU, TPU, ASIC, and FPGA…) Cloud Computing High-Performance Computing Integration and Examples Data Source and Integration Software Engineering Translational Research Other Topics Each contributed chapter is expected to present a method or protocol with parameter details for epistasis. Each book chapter should only contain 7 sections: Abstract, Introduction, Materials, Methods, Notes, Acknowledgement, References A sample book chapter is available at: http://motif.cs.cityu.edu.hk:8000/Kurien2015.pdf Note that there will be NO publication fees or other hidden fees for accepted chapters. There is not any limit on figures and tables. *************************************************** Important Dates Chapter submission deadline 2019-10-31 Chapter review notification 2019-12-31 Final version deadline 2020-01-31 *************************************************** Guideline: http://motif.cs.cityu.edu.hk:8000/MiMB.pdf Sample Book Chapter: http://motif.cs.cityu.edu.hk:8000/Kurien2015.pdf ******************************************************************** ******************************************************************** All submissions should be done via our secured open conference system: http://motif.cs.cityu.edu.hk:8000/openconf ******************************************************************** ******************************************************************** For accepted book chapters, please fill in the author consent form: http://motif.cs.cityu.edu.hk:8000/AuthorConsent.doc Thanks for your attention.
